We try to reveal the application of the square ideological in the discourses, as well as to conclude the different hidden ideologies by means of Teun van Dijk´s proposal of ideological analysis. As a result, we find that People´s Daily is characterized by highlighting the great potential of bilateral relations and the contribution that China has made to promote them; while El País, besides showing its confidence about the future relations between China and Spain, questions the political intentions with which China carries out international cooperation.
